That’s not true. And if it is, feel free to submit patches, if you want the perfect documentation (I think, I mentioned this before. Several times). I am not interested in translating from C++ to English in order to mention every small detail about implementation (which you chose not to review despite being directly asked to do so. Several times).

The rest of the community is not interested either. It is not boring, it is irrelevant to the patch - I haven’t done any global changes to the patch in a YEAR constantly pleasing you desire to discuss the bigger picture. We discussed it and guess what changed? Nothing. The only job I did related to the patch is moved some code around and I don’t see how it was related to those endless discussions either.
